Operation Tân

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Operation Tân was the name of a series of UK police raids between 1979-10-01 and 1980-09-30. The aim of the operation was to identify "Welsh Extremists" responsible for burning second homes.

It has been criticised as a more generalised trawl of left and nationalist milieux within Wales.[1]
